Jack Schlossberg isn't afraid to call out politicians on social media, and his latest target is none other than Donald Trump.
This week, as the president continues his litany of executive orders and aggressive policy decisions that have marked his first weeks back in office, he released thousands of previously classified files pertaining to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
For the last 60 years, the late president's assassination has remained both one of the darkest days in American history, as well as a perennial obsession for many marred with conspiracy theories, the latter of which his grandson isn't buying into.
Amid the release of the files, Jack, who is Kennedy's daughter Caroline Kennedy's son, took to Twitter (now known as X), to share some thoughts, calling out both the president as well as his mom's cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr., whose father was also assassinated, and who has been largely shunned by much of his family.
First, the Harvard Law graduate clarified: "No — THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION DID NOT GIVE ANYONE IN PRESIDENT KENNEDY'S FAMILY 'A HEADS UP' ABOUT THE RELEASE. a total surprise, and not shocker !!" though noted: "But @RobertKennedyJr definitely knew."
Then as Republican Senator Mike Lee tweeted wondering why it took so long to release the files, Jack clapped back: "You really care about JFK's legacy? You're dismantling it. Go ask Bobby for a retweet."

Starting a thread, it continued: "These men are stealing history from present and future generations — by appropriating the past for their criminal agenda, they normalize themselves in the minds of those without living memory."

JFK stared down Russia and did not blink — Trump is Russia's closest ally. JFK sent a man to the moon — Trump gave Elon the keys to Air Force One. JFK created USAID — Trump eliminated it.

Jack lastly stated: "JFK celebrated the arts and culture. Trump attacks artist's identities, took over the Kennedy center just to empty it out and pave it gold."
